The direct answer
An EC REP certificate has four blocks that matter: the appointing manufacturer, the authorized representative, the agreement number and validity, and the conditions attached - and each answers a verification question. CLK's certificate names Jiangxi Chengleke Leather Co., Ltd as the appointing party, EUREPSTAR GmbH of Ingolstadt, Germany as the representative, carries agreement number EUREP-2025082911400605716, and is valid from September 19, 2025 to September 18, 2027 - with the condition that CE certificates, technical files and Declarations of Conformity stay current.

Block 2: the representative must be in the EU
The authorized representative must be established in the EU - that is the entire point of the role. EUREPSTAR GmbH is based in Ingolstadt, Germany, with a German address, phone and email on the certificate. A "representative" with no EU establishment does not satisfy GPSR.
Block 3: the agreement number
The certificate carries the agreement number EUREP-2025082911400605716, and it notes that the agreement is the governing document - if anything in the certificate conflicts with the agreement, the agreement prevails. That clause is a reminder that the certificate is a summary of a contractual relationship, not the contract itself.
Block 4: the conditions
The appointment is conditional: EUREPSTAR accepts the role provided CLK holds corresponding CE certificates, updated technical files and Declarations of Conformity for all products in the EU market. In plain language, the representative's job only works if the documentation behind the products is real - which is why this certificate connects directly to the evidence side of the folder.
Factory data: When we hand the EC REP certificate to a buyer, we also hand the folder it depends on - the CE documents, technical files and declarations that the appointment is conditional upon. The certificate and the evidence travel together, because the certificate explicitly says one is not valid without the other.
